In a groundbreaking study published in the Astrophysical Journal, scientists revealed compelling evidence of intense molecular gas outflows from quasars. Detected by ALMA, these outflows date back to when the universe was less than a billion years old, offering insights into early cosmic dynamics and the regulation of star formation in galaxies. | Interesting Engineering

Exploring Star and Planet Formation This animation explores the stages in the formation of stars and planets. Within a large, dense cloud, thousands of protostars collapse due to gravity. The infalling material forms a disk around the protostar, with jets emitted perpendicular to the disk. Planets condense and build up within the disk, establishing a new solar system. The Webb Space Telescope’s infrared observations will peer into these dark clouds and dusty disks to examine this formation proce
